HELP! and an update....
Okay, just wanted to post an updated picture of "Matilda" and ask for your suggestion on what color to paint her. The vehicle is primered now, just needs to be finish sanded, cleaned, and will be ready for paint. I plan on going with a single stage paint, no clear coat, but can't decide on the color. I'm waffling between either red or possible the original dessert-type color that it was originally painted (before being painted white). Here she is in my miniscule garage:

No, unfortunately not. It took me a while to track down a place near Seattle that you can order custom auto paint from. I wasn't finding much online, till a guy on IH8mud pointed me to Westco Auto Supply. I'll have to make a trip out there this week and place an order. With the Moab trip coming up fast, I'm not sure if I'll get it done any time soon....

I didn't much care for white till I got my runner.
Since then I've grown to really like it. Especially on cruisers.
The big plus is that it really hides all the pinstriping. However since you have a sprayer you can just respray as many times as you want.

Well, I've more or less settled on Toyota's dune beige color code 416, its the 5th one down:

Its starting to feel like an "extreme makeover" on television at this point. I can't wait to do the "big reveal" since none of you have seen much of the vehicle since I started butchering it...

Oops...my color link doesn't work. Oh well, your choice looks better than what I was thinking.
